Title: USB hub on Z6000 - cable???
Post by: C_Manson on October 28, 2004, 07:36:36 pm

I have a Zaurus 6000. It comes with what looks like a mini USB port.

Is that a full working USB hub?
And what kind of cable does it need?
Where do I get the right cable?
Can you connect an external HD to it?

Thank you.

The 6000 has a USB host port ("mini-A" style).

Go directly to the "Everything 6000 ... Hardware" forum.  Your cable answers are already there.

Yes you can attach a harddrive to it.  You will probably need to power the harddrive separately.  A USB keyboard is pretty neat.
